Foreign-born Americans and their children; our duty and opportunity for God and country from the standpoint of the Episcopal church . ITALIANS These hoys are little Italians, mostly American horn,of the Church School of one of our missions OUR CHURCHS RESPONSIBILITIES. AMERICANS DONT LIKEITALIANS Italians THE first foreign-born man to cometo America was a gentleman fromItaly by the name of Christopher Co-lumbus, wiho in 1492 crossed the oceanblue. In the last twenty years Ital-ians have been coming in such greatthrongs that there are now as our neigh-bors over 4,000,000 of these attractiveand industrious people, including theirchildren born here. New York, Penn-sylvania and New Jersey together haveover a million Italian residents, andthey are scattered everywhere through-out the United States. One reason wihythey are our Churchs responsibility isthat less than one-ithird of them arefaithful to the Roman Catholic Church;only 20,000 more are accounted for bythe Protestant Churches. Yet these ifgiven the opportunity readily respondto religious influences.
